ALL OUR SHIMMERING SKIES
by Trent Dalton, 4th Estate
Trent Dalton’s ambitious tale combines a dreamy aura of magical realism with scenes rooted in the Australian landscape. At its heart is Molly Hook, the “poor little gravedigger girl”, age seven when the story opens in Darwin in 1935. Molly’s mum, Violet, tells her to “keep your eyes on the sky” before she leaves. Molly knows her mum is up there and as her earthly life is engulfed in abuse and trauma, she uses her imagination to escape.
